G Herbo Shows How Toy Gun Works While Taina Calls Out The Purchase
In a video shared on Instagram, G Herbo appeared to be showing Essex and Taina Williams a new-age toy gun. He explained that the gunfire sounds from the toy varied in volume with and without the toy silencer, eventually saying, “That’s fire.” While he didn’t add any text to the video, the rapper included several laughing emojis. Meanwhile, off-camera, Taina first questioned the silencer function before disagreeing with the purchase. She can be heard saying, “Well, they don’t need to be teaching kids that.” Herbo cuts in, but Williams then continues, “That’s a bad gift. Why would you buy him that?” The rapper then disagrees that the you gun is a bad gift, but Mama Taina doubles down with “Yes, that is.” He then says that he’s previously told her about teaching the kids about gun safety. “How they gon’ protect the house,” the rapper added. Someone then takes the you weapon and fires it against Herbo’s dome, but it’s unclear if the hand holding the toy was Taina’s or Essex’s.
Social Media Weighs In On Toy Guns
In The Shade Room’s comment section, the roommates shared their thoughts on toy guns in general, but also G Herbo and Taina Williams’ opposing views on them.
@tadollaz commented, “Herb just happy to be there, Taina doing the real parenting 😭😭”
“I love how she is with the kids… him being one of the kids 😮💨,” @nycelizabeth added.
“Teaching your children about gun safety is GREAT idea, especially if you have firearms in the home,” @diomi_writesdastory wrote.
“It’s funny that yt hunting kids don’t get criticized for learning how to use guns. Ppl see a gun in a blk person hands and it becomes so dangerous 😢. Why we can’t protect ourselves,” @mzyonnaaaaa said.
“I agreee with both. Gun safety should be taught. But at an appropriate age,” @kala_tania added.
“Can yall be real like yall ain’t never have a toy gun 😭 my favorite was the dollar store ones with the caps in it that made the noise and blew real smoke 💨,” @stuck.on.lauren wrote.
“Nothing in this video screams gun safety 😂,” @mknzserenity commented.
“If you don’t teach the kids the streets will… it’s best it comes from the parents‼️💯,” @ny2dafulest said.
“He’s correct we as black ppl see the bad behind guns instead of teaching them gun safety so they can protect themselves and homes,” @tiffany_nydira added.
“I have to agree with Taina it is a bad gift,” @miss_honey26 wrote.
“You can try to shelter your children all you want. As a father everything is about education. Teach your children early. Trying to keep things away from them isn’t the way to go. I played with toys guns, played GTA and listened to Eminem. I think I turned out cool 😎,” @tony_hustle_215 said.
“If you keep guns from kids they get curious and that’s when accidents happen. Definitely should teach gun safety,” @kyamarye commented.
“Tbh he’s right it’s very important to teach your kids gun safetye especially at home but she’s also right because you don’t wanna make dat a habit,” @tannevacared added.
Wait, Emmy Did WHAT On Mother’s Day?
One thing about it, Emmy Wright, 3, has Daddy Herbo wrapped around her little fingers! She proved so on Mother’s Day. The rapper uploaded footage of him presenting Taina Williams with her gift, a custom diamond necklace. While Essex was happily recording mommy, Emmy was sitting her arms crossed and pouting. When asked by her dad, she admitted that she didn’t like the necklace because she didn’t get one, too. Taina brushed off the energy, calling her daughter selfish, while G Herbo immediately promised to get the 3-year-old a similar necklace. Taina quickly shut that down, but Herbo later doubled down on icing his daughter out. He even slid into The Shade Room’s comment section to defend his decision.
“I’m buying my baby a necklace F what y’all tome bout… She ain’t gone hate on nobody when she grow up cuz she gone have it.”
